Why can I 'su apache'? I get the following results whether I do 'su apache' or 'su - apache'. I'm writing a series of perl scripts to create a web frontend for portage. I want to run 'emerge' before and after adding apache to the portage group to see how it acts. This is very difficult to do when I can't switch to the user apache.

upstairs home # cat /etc/passwd | grep apache
apache:x:81:81:apache:/home/httpd:/bin/false
upstairs home # cat /etc/group | grep apache
apache:x:81:
upstairs home # su - apache
upstairs home # whoami
root
